? Yorktown Middle School seventh- and eighth-grade band members dedicated their performance of "Silent Night" at their Dec. 20 Winter Concert to Sandy Hook Elementary School students and staff.

The 85-member Symphonic Band opened the concert with eighth-grade band members announcing each of the Sandy Hook students who died on Dec. 14. Director John Higgins said in an email, "The students wanted to dedicate a special performance of Silent Night for those students and faculty who lost their lives last week."
